This is not the end, after mentioning the words, Zheng Xiong quietly waited for the craftsman to engrave.

As the last word was engraved, Li Si also took the tribute that had been prepared long ago.

"Shoot."

Li Si heard Zheng Xiong's words and conveyed this order to the back again.

There were still twelve shots.

Zheng Xiong picked up the incense and bowed to the stone tablet three times, and inserted the incense into the incense burner in front of him.

Except for a few words in the middle, Zheng Xiong held this memorial almost in silence.

After the ceremony, Zheng Xiong disbanded the army and prepared to return to Beijing.

But Zheng Xiong's legacy is huge.

Zhang Huaiyuan didn't know why, what was the use of doing this to these big-headed soldiers, but he didn't say anything about Zheng Xiong's behavior, and he didn't say too much.

The word "rite" has been an unavoidable topic from ancient times to the present, that is where the quality lies, and Zhang Huaiyuan, as a member of the literati, should be like this.

Many people feel that the living do so much to the dead, how well they do, and they don't see what you do before they die, and it's a waste to come and pretend after death.

Actually, too, it's all for the living.

It's just that it is the inheritance of this generation that is impressive and orderly.

Whether it is good or not, the emphasis is on inheritance and education.

Others have seen that the attitude towards the old and young is only in a thought, and others are not without envy.

The attitude towards Zheng Xiong in the army is obviously different, in the past it was just to obey orders, but now it is truly convinced.

And the cemetery that Zheng Xiong made, people from the army came to pay respects from time to time, and everyone who came felt better about Zheng Xiong.

On this day, everything has been prepared, and Zheng Xiong's homecoming is already a little impatient.

"Lao Li, have you done it all?"

"Master Hou, everything is done, the official letters along the way have been issued, just waiting for the army to set off."

"It's just that what to do with the captured Yuan army this time still needs to ask Master Hou."

"Oh, if you don't say I'll forget."

"I can't let them go, and letting them go back will damage Benhou's image."

"Take it back with you and be a companion to their emperor."

"Later, I will write a letter in hand, and you will send it to the border, and then hand it over to Naha."

"Yes, Master Hou, the lower official has written it down."

"Well, let's get it, go get my daughter-in-law and go home tomorrow."

"Master Hou, why don't you go there yourself and explain?"

"Everything that should be explained has been explained, there are thirteen incense and the purchased real estate plus Hu Xu to take care of it, there should be nothing to do, go and take care of Hu Xu, it's inconvenient for me to come forward, and I'm not free to say it."

"Yes, Master Hou."

After Li Si left, Zheng Xiong set up another table of banquets and said goodbye to Zhang Huaiyuan and others.

Zhang Huaiyuan has nothing to say, not only borrowing money, but also taking care of him, and it is unreasonable not to eat.

When Li Si arrived in Ying County, although Wei Hong was reluctant, he had to leave the Wei brothers ruthlessly.

Marrying a chicken with a chicken, marrying a husband, women in this era are still very particular.

Eat and drink well, with the arrival of Wei Hong, this night is very comfortable.

In the early morning of the next day, Zheng Xionglai didn't want to get up in the bed.

The set day is not transferred by human will, Zheng Xiong reluctantly got up to wash, and then gathered the army to set off.

Zhang Huaiyuan pinched the time, and when the others arrived, they came to see them off, along with their colleagues from Yanmen who had eaten.

After some scenes, Zheng Xiong embarked on the journey home.

"Li Si, you calculated the way back correctly, don't be wrong with the place I told my eldest brother."

"Master Hou, in the territory of Gunzhou, I don't know the specific location, but it should be pretty different."

"Okay, take it one step at a time, I hope my old brother will give me some strength, otherwise it will be a little heartache if I lose this money."

The homecoming army led by Zheng Xiong went very smoothly, and so many people came to find fault with their eyes.

The food and grass on the road are supplied, you don't have to worry about eating and drinking, and your daughter-in-law follows the army, which makes it more fun along the way.

Such a march is not so much a march as a honeymoon trip for Zheng Xiong and Wei Hong, accompanied by bodyguards along the way, which is very comfortable than when they came.

Soon arrived in the territory of Gunzhou.

It's just that when I get here, human navigation is useless.

Zheng Hu and a few followers couldn't remember where to go.

Zheng Xiong is a little blind now, he is not willing to leave like this, and it is not a matter if he does not leave here.

Although Jining Prefecture has provided food and grass, so many people are always annoying.

Staying one more day is an ordeal for others.

No, until the next day, I saw that Zheng Xiong had no signs of leaving.

Gunzhou didn't want to wait any longer, and hurriedly sent someone to ask Zheng Xiong's intentions.

"Master Hou, Lord Zhizhou called the officials here to ask, I don't know why Lord Hou stayed here?"

Headache, can I say it's for my own personal affairs, obviously not, this has to be said, there is absolutely no good fruit to eat.

"Marching for days, repairing one or two here, seeing the unique scenery of Gunzhou, staying for a while, I can't bear to leave!"

Trimming can be understood, but I can't bear to see the scenery, so many people, how much food does it cost to supply a day.

With so much food, a lot of things can be solved.

"That, Master Hou, these 10,000 soldiers eat horses, we can't afford it!"

"The world has just been decided, and there have been continuous floods in my Gunzhou in the past two years, and there are often bandits in Xiangma Mountain in the territory."

"Please also ask Hou Yenian to be merciful for the sake of our difficulties and leave as soon as possible."

"I can't thank you enough."

said it too directly, and made a big salute to Zheng Xiong, who was a little ashamed of this attitude of even saying and begging.

Is it so difficult, and I don't shy away from telling myself, this is indeed a bit inappropriate.

"That, I really don't know how difficult it is to wait, so let's do it, I won't eat in vain, you said that there are many bandits in Xiangma Mountain, I will kill you by the way, what do you think?"

It's a bit tempting, and some of the officials who came were moved by Zheng Xiong's words, but they still had some concerns.

"If Hou Ye helps, I can't wait to be grateful, but we really don't have extra food and grass for Hou Ye to suppress the bandits."

"It's okay, the food and grass you provide is enough to eat for a few days, enough to leave the territory of your Gunzhou, and I won't delay anything by the way to suppress the bandits for you."

Is Zheng Xiong a good person, it doesn't count, but he always wants to try his luck, maybe he will meet it.

Besides, if it is beneficial to both parties, I also have some reasons to lose, and mutual benefit is not a loss.

"In that case, the lower officials are welcome!"

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

"There is a Cao County next to our Gunzhou, among which ~"

"Wait, where are you talking about Cao County, why do you feel familiar?"

"Don't you know? Also, speaking of which, this Cao County has also been renamed in recent years, and it is called Caozhou in front. ”

"In the fourth year of Hongwu, Caozhou was reduced to Cao County, which was under the jurisdiction of Jining Prefecture."

"That's not right, it's under the jurisdiction of Jining Mansion, what's your business?"
